the operator of the troubled fukushima daiichi nuclear plant says a new cooling system is now working well following a string of problems. tokyo electric power company says it will accelerate the cooling of the plant's reactors in august, a vital step to bringing them under control. tepco says the cooling system has been working almost as planned since the start of this month. the system, which recycles decontaminated radioactive waste water, had struggled to get up and running since its launch in late june. the utility says that with radioactive water still leaking from three reactors it had to limit the amount of waste water used in the system. the leaks mean that the level of toxic water already accumulated is not falling. the utility says if the water decontaminator keeps working properly the water level will drop to more than one meter below the risk of overflowing by next month. that in turn would allow it to increase the amount of water used to cool the reactors. but tepco says it's still concerned about the extent of damage to the reactor containment vessels, injecting more wa
